The Basic Instinct star gave up a planned vacation in Israel with her eldest son to attend a polo match in Windsor and sit in the Queen's box.

She spent weeks perfecting her curtsy, but had no idea that meeting the monarch would leave her speechless on the day.

Stone explains, "I was so tongue-tied that once I finally managed to choke out, 'Your Majesty...' I realised I was actually looking at the Queen... and she's so lovely, and it was her coronation (celebration), so she had on all fuchsia, the fuchsia hat, the coat... the brooch.

"I was so overwhelmed... She just kept looking at me and I was like, 'I know that I can speak but it seem to have failed me now as I'm just staring at her...' I just stood there like a complete dumba**. She kept looking at me like, 'Who is this dumb woman staring at me?'"
